"I just feel better when I know what's going on, that's all," the Turk mumbled. "People are always thinking I'm so stupid because I'm big and strong and sometimes drool a little when I get excited."

The other day, I was talking to my friend Corey and he suggested to me, as a Harry Potter fan, to find the "alternate soundtrack" to the first movie called Wizard People, Dear Readers. It's one of the funniest things I have ever watched in a long time. Basically, you burn (or buy) the CD with the commentary on it and play it on a CD player while syncing up the DVD with it.
It is a new form of art that, I think, should really take off. You can find it here: http://www.illegal-art.org/video/wizard.html
I also found this site: www.illegalart.org (I'm not sure if they're related to the same people who have posted Wizard People, but whatevs). I really like some of the experiments they have done. Particularly, the Suggestion Box and Personal Space. I actually want to give Suggestion Box a try for myself just to see what I can come up with at the end.
I want to get involved with something artsy. Maybe start a sketching group or a writing group. Or something like Illegal Art where you do interactive art projects.
It kind of reminds me of my FACS class last year when I went to York.
SHUTTTTTERRRRRR.

The Niddy Griddy
We had to create a three, two and one column layout for typography, and here is what I did. I used the same copy about Michael Buble pulled from his website, but this is what I came up with.
For what ever reason, with the two column, the JPG rendered outside the artboard. This the random picture of Michael's album cover.
